What is incredible that doesn't take much thinking, is the progress that has been made despite the fact that the internet is still only in it's infancy. We seem to be advancing more rapidly than any predictions. There seems to be no reason the rate of progress will slow down. The more the net diverges, expands in both size and scope, and evolves in format with increasingly productive solutions that can both cover fields and job specific application, the less accurate our predictions will be.

What is incredible that doesn't take much thinking, is the progress that has been made despite the fact that the internet is still only in it's infancy. We seem to be advancing more rapidly than any predictions. There seems to be no reason the rate of progress will slow down. The more the net diverges, expands in both size and scope, and evolves in format with increasingly productive solutions that can both cover fields and job specific application, the less accurate our predictions will be. We may have to reconfigure our memory, to be dynamic, not linear. Not artificially, but through practice and experience. Without ever being lazy enough to let computers think for us. They are already having a profound effect on memory, and thinking in general. We will have trouble learning about something before it changes format. The biggest advantage now is that people are being given access to speeds resources, and examples, of ways to customize our personal access to the net, and accumulate applications, programs and formats, that we are comfortable with. The future can be both cloudy and bright at the same time. We fix on the light at the end of the tunnel, we have to watch where we put our feet to avoid slipping, or tripping over.
